A life of only storms and sombre clouds - before the rainbow ever appears; the rain has already seeped into someone's heart. -☂︎ With this endless pain in my heart, tearing me apart, but also you beside me. Can't you see how happy I'd be? I'd smile and I'd say, "it was all for the best you see." #ryeji_fanfiction

Loving someone in silence is both the bravest and the most painful thing you can do. Shin Ryujin has always been good at hiding her feelings-especially the ones she knows she shouldn't have. To everyone else, she's confident, playful, and effortlessly cool. But deep down, Ryujin carries a secret she's never dared to say out loud: she's been in love with Hwang Yeji for years. Yeji is warm, radiant, and impossible not to adore. She laughs easily, cares deeply, and treats Ryujin with a kindness that makes Ryujin's heart ache even more. To Yeji, Ryujin is her closest friend-someone she trusts, someone she relies on, someone she never imagines could love her in that way. As days turn into nights filled with lingering glances, accidental touches, and moments that feel a little too intimate to be just friendship, Ryujin finds herself torn between protecting her heart and risking everything for the truth. Meanwhile, Yeji begins to notice the way Ryujin looks at her when she thinks no one is watching-and starts questioning feelings she never knew she had.

Hwang Yeji and Shin Ryujin are Korea's newest power couple. Whether they like it or not. Forced into an arranged marriage between two powerful families, the two must survive the pressure of the public eye, corporate expectations, and each other. To everyone watching, they look perfect together. Behind closed doors, however, their relationship is filled with sharp tension, unresolved history, and a chemistry neither of them knows what to do with. In a marriage built for appearances, the hardest part might not be pretending.

Ryujin has always been convinced Yeji is hiding something, even if everyone laughs it off as a crush. But one wrong turn puts Anna exactly where she shouldn't be. Suddenly, her suspicions don't feel so crazy anymore. Now she's stuck far too close to Yeji, in a world she doesn't understand and can't escape. Yeji has spent years keeping her life controlled, untouchable, and far out of reach from people like Ryujin. But when Ryujin stumbles into something she was never meant to see, Yeji is forced to deal with the one person who refuses to be intimidated by her. Ryujin is reckless, frustrating-and somehow impossible to push away.

⚠️ON HOLD⚠️ Ryujin doesn't believe in second chances. Not in love, not in timing, not in things that already broke once. But then again-she didn't believe she'd fall twice either. Now she's standing between a past that never really left and a future she's too afraid to reach for. And for the first time, walking away might not be the easier option. ___________________________________ Yeji mutters under her breath, "If the sunset doesn't take you out, I just might." Ryujin, deadpan, not even pretending to be flustered anymore, "Yeji." Yeji speaks, grinning ear to ear, "Yeah?" Ryujin, finally tears her gaze away from the orange horizon, "...stop being hot when I'm having an emotional moment."

Power. Money. Control. Yeji has everything people dream about. As the cold and untouchable CEO of a billion-dollar empire, she's used to people obeying her every word. No one dares to challenge her authority. Until her new bodyguard arrives. Ryujin. A woman with a dangerous reputation, unreadable eyes, and absolutely no respect for Yeji's attitude. She doesn't bow. She doesn't obey. And worst of all - she isn't afraid of her. What starts as constant arguments and silent tension slowly turns into something neither of them can control. Because the closer Ryujin stays to protect her... the harder it becomes to ignore the way their worlds collide. In a life full of enemies, power games, and secrets, one thing becomes clear- The bodyguard who was hired to protect the CEO might become the most dangerous thing in her life.
